Requirements to Mentor

Mentors should complete a club membership application form (part of Foireann registration process) prior to formally commencing their role in the club. This is particularly important for new Mentors as they must be registered in order to be covered by insurance. Signing an application form on Foireann requires the volunteer to agree to abide by the Club’s Codes, Policies, and Procedures.

All Mentors (new and existing) will be reviewed and ratified by the Club Executive on an annual basis.
To coach juveniles (players under 18 years) the following minimum requirements must be met;

  1. Have up to date Garda vetting

  2. Hold a Safeguarding 1 qualification

  3. Hold a Foundation Level coaching qualification

  4. Be a fully paid-up member of the club

Clontarf GAA expects all adult mentors to meet these requirements as we often have juveniles playing up on adult teams
